gen. nov., sp. nov., isolated from a marine solar saltern Free

Abstract

A Gram-negative, non-motile and rod-shaped bacterial strain, ISL-46, belonging to the , was isolated from a marine solar saltern in Korea, and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. Strain ISL-46 grew optimally at pH 7.0–8.0 and 30 °C and in the presence of 7 % (w/v) NaCl. It contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone and C cyclo 8, C 7 and 11-methyl C 7 as the major fatty acids. The DNA G+C content was 63.5 mol%. Strain ISL-46 exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 94.1–95.3 % to members of the phylogenetically related genera , , , and . Strain ISL-46 could be differentiated from the above-mentioned genera by differences in compositions of the major fatty acids and in some phenotypic properties. On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data, strain ISL-46 is considered to represent a novel genus and species, for which the name gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is ISL-46 (=KCTC 22485=CCUG 56758).
